I wonder if Contador simply wants to win "the Etna stage". Not a mountain finish you get to bag very often. GC is a bonus.

I think he wants to take a slow, leisurely descent of Crostis. He wants a few minutes in hand.

And this is why I love AC. A windy, not too steep climb days before the hardest stages, and he still attacks.

Scarponi toast.
